NOTD: Easter Edition

Hello
loves and Happy Easter to those of you celebrating! I, unfortunately, am not
since in my country Easter is in May. I am, however, really excited because
Easter is one of my favorite holidays! :) With that being said, I decided to do
a little Easter inspired ‘nail art’, which I will be sure to wear when the
holiday comes where I live! If you celebrate today and you are still not sure
what kind of mani to rock, I hope that this mine can give you some ideas! ((:

When I
think ‘Easter’, pretty pastel colors pop out in my head, so I knew that I want
to go for a cute mixture of my favorite pastel nail polishes! I am terrible at
nail art, so I went for something easy to make, yet cute-looking. You will only
need a dotting tool and three (I used three, but you can only use two if you
don’t want the manicure to be as colorful) pretty nail polishes! <3

I started
by applying Sally Hansen’s nail
polish in the color 416 Green Tea on
all my nails. You can of course use a base coat, but with Sally Hansen’s nail
polishes I really don’t feel the need to. Green
Tea is a really pretty light minty green color, which has a beautiful cream
finish. I did a full review on it, so you can see it here, but it’s one of my all time favorite mint nail polishes!

After the
base color was completely dry I got some of my Essie nail polish in the shade FrenchAffair and put some drops of it on a white sheet of paper. Then, using my
dotting tool, I just created different size of polka dots on my ring and middle
fingers and let them dry. :) I chose French Affair cuz I think that the two
colors compliment each other beautifully! <3

Then I
did exactly the same thing for my thumbnail, but this time I was using Models Own nail polish in Lemon Meringue. It’s a lovely milky yellow
color and I love it so much for spring and summer! Plus, I love the contrast between
the mint and the yellow; it’s really pretty and fresh! When I let Lemon Meringue dry – Voila! My manicure
was done and to be honest I quite like how it turned out! It’s something fresh
and different and I hope you all enjoy it as well! :))

Let me
know in the comments what you think and it the meantime Happy Easter and I hope
that you are having a great day! <33
